The Sunday Standard Pauper tournament returned to Hi-Gear in Marymart Mall as the store can now give out booster pack prizes to the top finishers. I made the announcement one week ahead and about ten players gathered to battle, a few will be their first. That meant four rounds of gameplay.

Team Carbo showed up with five participants, one of them a young apprentice which is a brother of one of their friends. Despite his age, I think he was playing a solid Blue Red Prowess deck which was a tier one deck in the format. I gladly gave him some of card freebies so he could practice building decks from a limited resource aspect.

Anyhow, I witnessed intense and back-and-forth matchups between players and it looked less of the beginners’ tournament as several awesome plays and good ol’ top decks were made. At the end of four rounds, here are the Top 3 finishers:

1st, Arthur (Mardu Allies)
2nd, Martin (Blue Red Prowess)
3rd, Allen (Mono Red)

Here are some of the pics I took during the tournament.

Big thanks to Hi-Gear for sponsoring the venue and see you on the next Standard Pauper tournament on February 21st.

Until the next post.
